Will Cristiano Ronaldo and Lionel Messi (35) face off in West Asia? Following Ronaldo, Messi also opened the way to West Asia토토사이트.
On the 15th (Korean time), Spain’s Elchilinguito reported that Messi’s father, Jorge Messi, who works as Messi’s agent, asked Al-Hilal for a salary of 600 million euros (approximately 840 billion won). That’s four times what Ronaldo gets from Al Nassar.
“Messi is not ruling out the opportunity to move to West Asia,” Elchiringuito added.
Messi’s future is uncertain as his contract with Paris Saint-Germain is about to expire in June. Paris Saint-Germain has an option to extend the one-year contract, but there is a possibility that the extension option will not be triggered because of the large salary.
Saudi Arabia’s Al-Hilal jumped in when it was free to negotiate with clubs outside of France.
The relationship between Messi and Saudi Arabia was ahead. In May of last year, he was appointed as the Saudi Arabia Tourism Ambassador.
Al-Hilal’s pursuit of Messi is one of Saudi Arabia’s grand projects. Saudi Arabia is planning ‘Vision 2030’, an economic and social reform project, and one of them is hosting the 2030 World Cup. It is a posture to win votes by co-hosting with Egypt and Greece.
Saudi Arabia acquired Newcastle United for this purpose and sponsors the 2023 FIFA Women’s World Cup and Club World Cup in Australia and New Zealand. In addition, Al Nasr of Saudi Arabia drew the attention of football fans around the world when he signed a contract with Ronaldo.
If Messi comes to the market, American Major League Soccer is being discussed along with his former team, FC Barcelona, Spain.
